Dive Location: Roatan

June 2000

Our dive adventure began at CocoView — a resort located on a small beach off  the southeastern shore of Roatan island.  After landing on Roatan, we took a taxi from the airport to CocoView landing.  A small launch shows up several  times a day to collect passengers, baggage and supplies for the resort.
